That\u2019s true, but even with that in mind, training and preparing for a cycling adventure in the Netherlands or abroad is still important. Not everyone always rides in every situation outside. We don\u2019t judge. Especially the time factor makes it possible to choose indoor cycling over outdoor cycling at some moments. Indoor training is indispensable for us if you have a goal in mind: that can be a big goal, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/en\/stories\/classic-rides-sella-ronda\/\">Marathon<\/a> or the Marmotte but also smaller goals like \u2018the first time the <a href=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/en\/stories\/valkenburg-the-netherlands-cycling-hotspot\/\">Cauberg<\/a>\u2018Or just a first time 100-kilometer bike ride. With the rise of advanced indoor cycling trainers, it\u2019s now easier than ever. In this article, we\u2019ll give you some different options for your ideal indoor cycling setup. With tips for indoor training, trainers, training programs, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"13898\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/MichielMaas-07164-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"lake, etxeondo, wahoo benelux, wahoo kickr, wahoo trainer, indoor trainer\" class=\"wp-image-13898\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Indoor Cycling Trainers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I first started cycling, there was actually only one type of indoor trainer and there were no online training programs yet. Yes, you could put a DVD in the player and with a little bit of art and flying tricks you could then virtually cycle up. You were always limited by the DVD and it felt rather gimmicky. With the advent of new technology that has all changed. Generally speaking, there is a distinction between two types of trainers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Basic Trainers<\/strong>These trainers provide resistance and you can use them to train and deliver output (with or without the use of a digital meter). It\u2019s indoor cycling, but it\u2019s more difficult to target your strength zones. These trainers often have a resistance roller (and are therefore \u2018Wheel-On\u2019 trainers, as you can read below). Pros: They are very cheap and take up little space. Cons: Less targeted training<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Smart Trainers<\/strong>This type of trainer can communicate the power you deliver to your computer, tablet or smartphone, allowing you to virtually cycle. Simply put: with the right software, you can read the values you pedal on your screen and thus train more specifically. The advantage is therefore better results and more targeted training. The downside is that you often need a power output point and you spend more money when purchasing it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Roll bank<\/strong>: a popular instrument to warm up for a match. You can also use it indoors. You do need a little more technique to do this well, but if you have that technique, this is the cheapest way to train indoors. Note: you can\u2019t stop stepping, because then you\u2019ll fall \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"13899\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/MichielMaas-07252-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"indoor training, indoor exercise bike\" class=\"wp-image-13899\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Indoor Training: lots of choice in types of trainers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you choose between a basic or a smart trainer, you then have a number of options to choose from. Although the \u2018direct drive\u2019 trainer is one of the most popular options, there are still differences and you can also choose other (sometimes very expensive) alternatives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Direct-Drive Trainers<\/strong>With a direct-drive trainer, you take the rear wheel off your bike and put the bike directly on the trainer. Ideal, because it is sturdy, you have the right cassette on it and you can pedal easily. These direct-drive trainers provide good resistance and you can easily adjust them with software on your computer. They are generally quite quiet. The downside is that the average <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.bol.com\/click\/click?p=2&amp;t=url&amp;s=1227670&amp;f=TXL&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bol.com%2Fnl%2Fnl%2Fp%2Fwahoo-kickr-core-interactieve-fietstrainer-direct-drive%2F9200000096285504%2F&amp;name=Wahoo%20KICKR%20CORE%20Interactieve%20Fietstrainer%20-%20D...\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Direct drive trainers start from \u20ac500.<\/a> Well-known brands like Wahoo and Tacx have a basic variant and then a more expensive option. The latter is over \u20ac1200 at both major brands, like the<a href=\"https:\/\/partner.bol.com\/click\/click?p=2&amp;t=url&amp;s=1227670&amp;f=TXL&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bol.com%2Fnl%2Fnl%2Fp%2Ftacx-t2875-xx-neo-2t-smart-fietstrainer-direct-drive-2200-watt%2F9200000119557493%2F&amp;name=Tacx%20T2875%20xx%20NEO%202T%20Smart%20Fietstrainer%20-%20Dire...\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\"> Tacx Neo 2t<\/a>, To name just one example. Other brands that offer a direct drive trainer are Elite (Italian), TrueKinetix (Dutch) and Saris (American). Technogym, the high-end Italian manufacturer, also has a direct drive trainer, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.technogym.com\/nl-NL\/product\/mycycling_DCSAA.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">That is over \u20ac1800<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wheel-On Trainers<\/strong>If you are just starting to cycle, this is the most affordable option. You assemble your <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.bol.com\/click\/click?p=2&amp;t=url&amp;s=1227670&amp;f=TXL&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bol.com%2Fnl%2Fnl%2Fp%2Ftacx-flow-t2240-fietstrainer-smart-trainer%2F9300000007952582%2F&amp;name=Tacx%20Indoortrainer%20Flow%20Smart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Bike on the trainer<\/a> with the rear wheel still in place and you can start almost immediately. Disadvantage: you need a wheel with a trainer tire and you have to secure the bike really well because otherwise you\u2019ll fall off. Another point: put a book or holder under your front wheel for a moment, otherwise you\u2019ll go downhill in a small incline. In addition to Tacx trainers and <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.bol.com\/click\/click?p=2&amp;t=url&amp;s=1227670&amp;f=TXL&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bol.com%2Fnl%2Fnl%2Fp%2Fwahoo-kickr-snap-fietstrainer-wheel-on%2F9200000080828524%2F&amp;name=Wahoo%20Kickr%20Snap%20Fietstrainer%20-%20Wheel%20on\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Wahoo<\/a> Also many other options, from cheap to more expensive. Among others, Elite and Saris offer good, reliable alternatives. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Smart Bikes<\/strong>This is the \u2019top of the bill\u2019 when it comes to indoor cycling and indoor exercise bikes. With these Smart Bikes you don\u2019t have to take your bike out of the shed. You get the idea: you do have to bring your wallet along, because <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.bol.com\/click\/click?p=2&amp;t=url&amp;s=1227670&amp;f=TXL&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bol.com%2Fnl%2Fnl%2Fp%2Ftacx-t8000-neo-bike-fietstrainer-direct-drive%2F9200000098937547%2F&amp;name=Tacx%20T8000%20NEO%20Bike%20Fietstrainer%20-%20Direct%20drive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">from as little as \u20ac3000<\/a> Are you the owner of such a smart bike? The options are endless and you need to have the space for them. But if you\u2019re looking for precision, this is the way to go. Both TrueKinetix, Wahoo, Tacx and even Technogym have such a trainer bike, which should come close to the real cycling experience. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"13901\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/MichielMaas-07049-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"wahoo benelux, indoor cycling, indoor bike trainer\" class=\"wp-image-13901\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Considerations when choosing an indoor cycling trainer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to start indoor cycling and you are looking for a good indoor cycling trainer, you are dealing with a number of parameters. Cycling is an expensive hobby; indoor cycling doesn\u2019t help with that. So if you don\u2019t have endless resources, budget is always an important factor, but well, here are a few things to consider when choosing and purchasing an indoor cycling trainer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Budget<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your budget is an important factor. Direct-drive trainers are generally more expensive, but offer more features and a better experience. What is a good option: the marketplace. Especially during the coronavirus pandemic, many people bought an indoor trainer and no longer use it. For a small fee, you can sometimes get a nearly new trainer. This also applies to every season, because in December\/January you will often see trainers from people who started enthusiastically but prefer to train outside rather than indoors (or not at all). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compatibility <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure the trainer is compatible with your bike. Now many trainers are equipped to accommodate almost any type of bike, but be sure to check:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your type of cassette\/switching system can be used<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Or your frame width can fit on it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For a small bike: do you have the right tire size? <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On an older bike: do you have the right cassette combination so that it fits on the trainer?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Power and Inclination Angle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is always a funny number. Because most new (direct drive) trainers offer a maximum power output of 1600-1800 watts. For the connoisseurs: the average amateur, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">NEVER DO THIS!<\/span> So don\u2019t let a trainer talk you into flying to the moon, just by the way. 1600 watts is more than enough if you have no competitive ambitions. The simulated inclination angle is also more than enough: how often are you going to ride the Angliru indoors? Big chance: 0 times. Because 1: that\u2019s not fun at all and% 2: it often doesn\u2019t fit into your training schedule. So forget about that inclination angle. Maximum 15? That\u2019s fine. Maximum 10% is sometimes just too little, but for that too: the chance that you\u2019ll ride indoors for a longer period of time is quite small. Unless you\u2019d like to do the Mortirolo indoors, but then you\u2019re already at a different level of fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Training goals <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Determine your training goals and then see if everything you want to do is possible with the trainer you are looking for. In fact, it is often the case that you can train and prepare best with a direct drive\/smart trainer. Then you can train specifically and really \u2018go for it\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"13900\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/MichielMaas-07096-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The Ultimate Guide to Indoor Training: Choose the Best Indoor Bike Trainer\" class=\"wp-image-13900\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Training apps and Software<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The right indoor training software is important if you have specific goals in mind. In fact, you can only use one of the training programs well to prepare for your cycling adventure, and that is <a href=\"https:\/\/cutt.ly\/vwR2wOOd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ROUVY<\/a>, Because you\u2019re driving around in the \u2018real\u2019 world there. The other apps are almost all virtual worlds and although you can follow good training programs, it feels different in the end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are some options for going indoor training, including costs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Zwift<\/strong>The proverbial \u2018mother of all training software\u2019. The market leader and benchmark. You can cycle an ever-growing number of virtual routes, even in real places like London, Richmond (USA), Glasgow and Innsbruck. The most important world in which you can cycle is the virtual Watopia, where you can cycle a climb that mimics the Alpe d\u2019Huez. Only without the views, that\u2019s for sure. <strong>Cost: \u20ac19.99 per month<\/strong> <strong>(or \u20ac199 per year)<\/strong> \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zwift.com\/eu\">ZWIFT<\/a>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Extra tip: Zwift organizes competitions, has its own Zwift groups, and nowadays also has its own trainer! So there\u2019s nothing wrong with that!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ROUVY<\/strong>Zwift Challenger. The choice was made to use the \u2018real roads\u2019 where your character is projected. You can see the surroundings, you have the impression that you are somewhere else. The downside is that traffic is also present. So yes, you\u2019ll still see those crazy cars and other cyclists. The range of routes is huge, so your next destination is definitely included. <strong>Cost: \u20ac14.99 per month, but as a couple it's only \u20ac19.99 per month (!)<\/strong> And you can also pay per year, in that case it's <strong>only \u20ac12.40<\/strong> \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/rouvy.com\/#pricing\">ROUVY<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>MyWhoosh<\/strong>: Offers a good alternative to Zwift, but currently has fewer routes and \u2018worlds\u2019 where you can cycle. Does have more \u2018real roads\u2019 instead of the virtual Watopa. Money is like water, so expect a lot of new developments in the coming time. <strong>Cost: FREE<\/strong> \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mywhoosh.com\/\">MyWhoosh<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>BKOOL: <\/strong>Similar to Rouvy, but slowly dying because there is not enough community. Cost is lower than Rouvy: <strong>\u20ac11.00 per month<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trainerroad<\/strong>This one has been around for a while, but it really lacks the ability to cycle online. You can see your training progress, but you're literally going back in time. <strong>Cost \u20ac19.99 per month<\/strong>. However: unlimited entertainment options!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>FulGaz<\/strong>Another alternative to the many options. For \u20ac21.99 per month, you can virtually drive around in this app. These are real roads, filmed by professionals (or with their own input). <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Accessories for an Optimal Training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mat<\/strong> A mat under your trainer helps reduce noise and protects your floor when you go for indoor training. It\u2019s also great for absorbing sweat droplets and it just looks neat in the end too!
